FS2004 Vultee XP-54 Swoose Goose
FS2004 Vultee XP-54 Swoose Goose.A radical design shape in response to USAAF R409C RFP looking for unconventional designs.Originally designed as a fighter-bomber, its mission was changed to high altitude interceptor. The height required to keep the prop clear of the ground gave rise to a unique egress – the seat raised and lowered, also allowing the canopy to be solid and pressurized. Featured a moveable nose that automatically adjusted the cannon elevation. The Lycoming engine never worked out its teething problems, nor delivered its projected power. Project cancelled after about a year of flight test. 2 built. Created by: Jeffrey Nissen (model, textures, panel mods, flight dynamics). Not tested in FSX but it should work. 4.8MB
